2016 Simulation Based Patient Safety Symposium

Overview & Objectives

The CSO-HNS is pleased to announce a half-day, simulation-based workshop offered at this year’s Annual Meeting. The interactive workshop provides a unique opportunity to refine technical and non-technical skills in an effort to improve patient safety in Otolaryngology. The workshop consists of 4 small -and large-group stations and follows the care of a single patient through various stages of his/her care.

Stations include: flexible / rigid bronchoscopy with foreign body removal, simulated patients for hands-on learning of practical crisis resource management (CRM) skills, and pertinent medico-legal scenarios. All simulations will include either individualized feedback or group debriefing sessions. Invited faculty will come from across North America.
